Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. 280 pages. At the dawn of the 21st century, it should be evident that the Cold War of 19 45-1991 was but the first of its kind. Nichols urges the reader to consider prev ious resolutions before another such conflict arises. He asserts that the Cold W ar was essentially a clash of ideologies tempered by the ever-present threat of nuclear annihilation.
